The following comments relate to this news article:
article published on 19 March, 2008
SlySoft has been known in the past years for breaking and then poking fun at layers of protection released on DVDs with the AnyDVD application. It was no surprise that SlySoft would be among the first to offer solutions for Advanced Access Content System (AACS) used on both HD DVD and Blu-ray for normal users with no in-depth knowledge of copy protection.
After sort of backing the HD ... [ read the full article ]

Hehe. Blueray's DRM is not down yet even if they did Cripple BD+ there is still the third layer called, BD-ROM Mark.
although with HD-DVD otta the way BD-ROM Mark should soon be crippled soon.
And by the way isn't BD+ inbeded into the player itself, i thought it was a piece of VM code..
And Indeed if A Man can make it A Man can brake it.

Congratulation to Slysoft, keep up the good work. It just goes to prove nothing is infallible. Your company has one of the best reputable representation around.

I dont see why you take it so personal when somebody bashes the DRM-RAY, i get that you like the hardware, i get that you like the studios backing it up, i even get that you might even like sony and its policies, but why is it that just because other people dont like the way they want to control the market makes you feel like they are attaking you, its ok for you to like it enough to consider yourself a Blu-ray backer, but in the end, are you really a blu-ray backer "per sei"?, do you go out on the streets with big lettered boards showing your support for a piece of hardware, do you knock door to door to convince every single person that blu-ray is the way?, if you did that i would totaly understand that you would feel those attacks where personal, because it were more than just liking an electronic device, it would be deffending your ideals, but with something like this, dont you think its... well, i dont know how to say it and be politically correct, but wouldn it be a little bit too weird? its not like you´re debating on politics you know, its just a movie player, and besides its the winner of the format war for all anyone cares

Thanks Slysoft for giving us back our fair rights to our purchased media.In a weird way,Blu-Ray needs Slysoft in order to maintain a healthy interest for those who will only purchase Blu-Ray if the DRM can be defeated.

As to more "established" i don't even understand what you mean by it, region coding perhaps?
He was probably referring to HD DVD being established as in a finished product, like with profiles and such. But hey, that's just my guess.
I think all these media companies are working with these people that crack the encryption schemes. It's all just a conspiracy!

i see.. in that case, it make sense. I do agree that HD-DVD spec was finalized before BD. However, i won't just call it "established" because it got a "finalized" spec. It just means that little Huey hands in the homework before little Bobby does...
Peace!

What about Duwey and Louie?
On a serious note, I think it's a little more complicated than "handing in your homework". HDi and BD-J are very different. They are similar in that they have the have a common outcome in mind, they are different in the way that they are created. HDi is written using XML, BD-J is a Java based platform (Sun Microsystems).
See here, for further explanation...

I know it's more complicated that "homeworks." I'm just using a simple example that all... The fact that HD-DVD has a finalized spec doesn't mean it's a well "established" product. Huey = HD-DVD, Bobby=BD, i wasn't thinking about Duck Tales :)
Peace!

It was a joke...
The second part to my post added support to your post by indicating that it goes a little deeper than the "homework" analogy. HD-DVD's HDi and Blu-ray's BD-J are two very different things.

I have been able to rip BD to HDD but not a one to BD-R that will play on PS3....I guess you just gather the family around the computer to watch that "fair use" back up. If I am missing something please feel free to enlighten me..Otherwise Blue rays are as copy able as HD-DVD..Wasted money on 2 blue-ray burners and Anydvd-hd...

Everyone wonders why the best format did not win (HD-DVD) It is all in the amount of money that is brought to the table. The war between Beta movies and VHS movies wentto the winner VHS, because of the movie industry's support of the VHS technology instead of Beta. Sony lost that war to The Victor corportion. I believe sony decided not to lose this war. I wish they had because it will take along time for them to completely catch up to HD-DVD. It was by far the better format. Thanks to all that support free use.

LOL! I think that you ironically summed up my thoughts with that sentence alone. A Freudian slip perhaps... ?
Those that protest against DRM and tout fair use, do they really mean free use? Hmmm...
